Prof. Alexandratos elected to the ACS Committee on Science

Prof. Spiro Alexandratos has just been elected, by a vote of ACS councilors and
division chairs, to the ACS Committee on Science.

The Joint Board-Council Committee on Science provides an
organizational framework to facilitate policy formation, action, and
planning in several areas of ACS activity directly related to the science of
chemistry. The Committee is structured to provide a forum for
consideration and coordination of the scientific activities of the many
diverse units of the Society and to provide an interface among such
units. Recently, the Committee on Science reviewed its role in the Society and
determined that it can best serve the members as an integrating and
coordinating body, bringing together the expertise and knowledge of the
Divisions and other ACS groups to illuminate issues of Society-wide concern
and interest. Its aim is to augment information transfer by cooperating
with divisional programming in a broad sense.
